A rose and a potato? Yes, you read that right! This idea is going to sound really strange, but it does work.
Take the potato and drill in a hole the width of the stalk; make sure the stalk doesn’t wobble within the hole. Cover the bottom of the pot with 5 centimeters of potting soil, and place the potato on top and fill the rest of the pot with potting soil.
Get the desired size of plastic bottle, cut off the bottom about 2 centimeters and carefully place it over the stalk sticking out of the soil.
Occasionally water the rose around the bottle and watch how your roses grow like never before!
